    Solid build quality, great control software for managing performance settings. I bought this for CAD work and have performed perfectly.

    Great laptop! It has a 4070ti. Gifted it to my son and it does great on games he plays. The laptop is connected to our 4k TV and a little stuttering but over all a great laptop.

    Ok........ this is one bad B. Loving the laptop so far. Fast, speedy. The only thing I would say is... the blue paint is coming off on the laptop and it's only been a month or two of use. I might need to have Best Buy look at it. But in terms of the hardware, its great.

    I was looking for a powerful multi purpose laptop and Alienware checked all the boxes. The laptop is the best I have found for durability, aluminum casing for protection, not like the other brands that feel like cheap plastic. Great investment for the money and the backlit keyboard is a plus.

    Good but frustrating

    What it can run, it runs amazingly. I went from an ASUS ROG Zephyrus with a 14-core, 12th gen i9 and a 3070Ti to this thing. The Alienware is much quieter, feels better built, and performs better (bigger gains than I expected). Unfortunately, it crashes when I try to play most of the stuff I want to play. Enshrouded, Anno 1800, Cities Skylines II, Sea of Thieves, et al., lock the machine on launch, and then it reboots. Anno 117 is the only game released in the past ~5 years that I’ve gotten to run on it (and it runs that beautifully!) Problem with the RTX50xx drivers, perhaps? Updating them hasn’t fixed it.

    Wow! What a power house! Alienware continues to put out the best gaming laptops. Fast, exceptional graphics, great SSD, plays my games without lag. Nice. Do miss the original Alienware chassis though. Everything else will always feel cheap and dainty haha.

    Had an issue with Windows hiding the alienware headset that Copilot help troubleshoot but no problems after that. Does run warm but my cooling plate from previous laptop works great on it.

    This is a great computer for my son going to architecture school. We were personally recommended to purchase this as it can handle all the software. It is easy to use and somewhat on the larger side. My son loves it so far. Highly recommend.
